Chapter 586
He knew very well that his achievement was only to demolish a few houses, so he did not force the supervisor to put up his statue.
After all, a statue put up like that would not live up to its name and would easily become a laughing stock.
But would he feel relieved if he didn't put up a statue?
Of course not!
So Dark gave an order, and Trina, the personal maid, swung a sword.
Everyone only felt a flash of sword light, and a very long sword mark appeared on the wall.
The man who mocked Dark in front of him - his statue was cut in half!
The statue that fell from the sky directly smashed the gate of the Star Building, and the huge roar shook the entire noble trade area.
Of course, Trina had sensed through the qi that no one was passing through the bottom when she drew her sword.
After that sword, the man whose statue was cut off - a tuft of hair fell from his head instantly, frightening him so much that he almost fell to the ground.
After all, he was the son of the Marquis, so he was not scared to wet his pants.
His personal guard suddenly drew his sword, but when Trina put away her sword, the sword's force surged in the opposite direction, and in an instant, the guard couldn't even breathe.
The famous sword in his hand actually trembled "woohoo".
The overwhelming gap between the two sides' strength brought the battle that seemed to be bloody to a halt.
It also made the onlookers and the director of the Star Building very happy.
But now it seems that in the year that Dak Dimon went to St. Marian College, the son of the Marquis seemed to be standing up again?
Dak thought about it, what was the name of the child of the Marquis's family?
...
"By the way, who is the statue that was cut in half?" Dak asked casually.
Trina said calmly, "It's Joshua, the youngest son of the Marquis of Middleton."
Dake nodded, "So that's his name. I wonder if he's here?"
"Puff!"
The poor waitress collapsed to the ground with a "pop" when she heard this conversation, shaking like a chaff.
"What's wrong with her?"
Dake was puzzled.
But he quickly squatted down and grabbed her hand, asking with concern, "Miss, are you okay?"
"No, it's okay--"
The waitress's face was pale, her limbs were weak, and the hand held by Dak was like a vibrator, and even the words she spoke were trembling.
It was as if the youngest son of the Marquis had been cut in half in front of her!
Her symptoms were so obvious that Dak couldn't help but frown and said, "If you don't feel well, it's best not to force yourself to come to work. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me."
"No, no..." The waitress hurriedly said, "I just didn't sleep well."
Dak sighed, "I didn't expect that a place like the Star Building would force employees to work. You go and rest, I will go to talk to your supervisor later."
"No, don't! I'm really fine!" The waitress burst out with strength in an instant, and actually supported herself to stand up.
Dak saw that her waist was no longer bent and her feet were no longer shaking, and shook his head helplessly: "Then let's go to the sixth floor first."
...
Beside him, Aurora opened her mouth slightly, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Although she was helping the city lord Montilfarli deal with internal affairs, she was still too immature in grasping people's hearts.
Led by the strong waitress, the three of them climbed to the sixth floor of the Star Building.
Chapter 469: Darkdemon Conquered Without Fighting (82/233)
The sixth floor of the Star Tower is a place similar to a private club.
There are no products for sale there, and even food, drink and entertainment are all free.
But those who are qualified to enter are the more powerful nobles in the capital.
The most powerful among them is naturally the eldest prince Charles with a statue on the stone pillar.
It is precisely because of the background of the eldest prince that the Star Tower can be safe and sound under the prying eyes of so many nobles.
Otherwise, such a big piece of fat meat would have been eaten up by others long ago.
In addition to the six statues, the Star Tower often publishes some comparison rankings among young people.
Some are sensational, while others are very valuable for reference.
Dark used to be a celebrity in the capital. Although he was young, he was often on the list because of his status.
Of course, he was not very interested in these things.
In the past, he was always hot-tempered and did whatever he thought of. He had a competitive spirit, but it was not high.
Today the sun is shining brightly.
The noble children huddled on the sixth floor are in an emergency meeting.
When the carriage appeared outside the noble trade area, the group of people learned about the return of Dak Dimon, and each of them had a stressful reaction.
The one who reacted the most was Joshua, the youngest son of the Marquis of Middleton!
Joshua is sixteen years old this year, not old, but he is already an "adult" in this world.
Originally, during the war, only fourteen years old was considered an "adult", and it was the relative peace in the past ten years that pushed the boundary of "adult" back by two years.
Moreover, the development of the times has slowed down the improvement of children's minds, and the boundary of "adult" may be delayed by another two years.
But at least now, Joshua is already an adult.
His father, the Marquis of Middleton, was a new noble who rose during the war. Although he was slightly inferior to Alvette in prestige, he was already an extremely powerful warrior, not to mention that he was also a senior strategist.
Before the development of magic technology, the power system of this world was mainly based on magic and qi.
Magic is profound and difficult to master, and humans generally lack sufficient magic support, so they are far inferior to the demons.
In order to compete with the demons, they developed "qi" that only humans can master.
The so-called "qi" is a mysterious power stimulated from the human chakra.
Magicians believe that "qi" is actually a kind of magic.
The Holy Church believes that "qi" is a natural supernatural power of "saints", which is hidden in the human chakra through generations.
Both statements have basis.
Because except for humans, demons have no chakras.
The role of "qi" is actually the same as the effect of some enhancement magic.
In other words, it can only be used to strengthen the body.
The human body has seven chakras, which are seven energy gathering points that dominate different tissue systems of the human body.
They are the crown chakra, the brow chakra, the throat chakra, the heart chakra, the navel chakra, the root chakra and the brahma chakra.
Every time a chakra is opened, the control of human body can be improved to a higher level.
And the quality and quantity of "qi" will also be improved accordingly.
Among these seven chakras, only "Brahma Chakra" is located outside the human body, that is, above the head.
If the "Brahma Chakra" can be opened, the "qi" can be released to form a very oppressive "momentum"!
A sufficiently strong "momentum" can even form a dragon-like effect, collectively suppressing those with weaker mental power!
But even so.
The popularization of "qi" can only allow humans to barely support under the strong attack of the demons.
Its limitations are very large, and it is still far inferior to magic.
What's more, the demons are born with strong physiques, and the physique of any demon warrior will not be weaker than that of a human warrior with seven chakras fully opened.
In order to increase the upper limit, humans usually practice "qi" and "magic".
Before the development of magic technology, the most powerful profession of purebred humans was the magic warrior who practiced "qi" and "magic"!
Marquis Middleton is a powerful magic warrior.
As his son, Joshua is also a magic warrior.
Moreover, when he was only fourteen years old, he had already followed his father to eliminate a large number of extremists. He was a rare powerful person among the children of the nobles.
His statue was indeed placed on the stone pillar because of his merits.
On the contrary, Dak Dimon in the first half of last year was useless except for being the son of the Duke. He was arrogant and domineering. He deserved to be ridiculed and mocked.
However, after that day, Joshua was called to the study by the Marquis of Middleton and talked all night.
The next day, Joshua came out of the study with a little more scheming.
He has not forced the Star Tower to repair the statue so far, which is a manifestation.
That is waiting for Dak Dimon's return.
He wants to defeat him from the front with fair means, and then put his statue on the stone pillar again to wash away the stigma!
...
Joshua, sitting on the sofa, looked serious.
Although he has been studying in the Royal Academy during this period, he still pays attention to the news of Dak Dimon.
I heard that Dak Dimon is doing well in St. Marian College and is no longer the same as before.
It is still unknown who will win or lose in today's battle.
"But that's just right. If I fight with a weak person, it will seem that I won unfairly. My Middleton family rose to prominence through military exploits and controlled the Magic Sword Knights. We can be cunning in war, but we must be upright in daily life. With my ability, I will practice the family rules."
Joshua said slowly, his thin face shining.
The noble children sitting around him, although they did not flatter him, they all applauded and admired him.
In fact, the son of the Duke was too arrogant and never established relations with others, and even drove people away.
In this Star Tower, even if there were people who wanted to get close to him, they were all turned away, so it became like this without a single supporter.
However, only one-third of the nobles centered on Joshua, and the other two-thirds were just chatting and laughing, watching the show and eating melons.
...
Not long after, footsteps were heard from the stairs.
"Here they come!"
Joshua's eyes fixed, and he looked at the stairs.
Almost everyone stopped discussing, and their eyes instantly focused on that place.
And then, as expected, Dak Dimon appeared at the focus of attention.
The son of the Duchess, who had not been seen for nearly a year, was dressed rigorously, with his blonde hair combed meticulously, and his skin was as smooth as jade, which was better than the skin of those girls on the list.
And his expression was gentle, his temperament was mellow and elegant, and at first glance, he looked like a spring breeze, and people actually mistakenly thought that he was the descendant of a wise man who made a guest appearance.
However, the noble boy who climbed to the sixth floor was indeed the son of the Duchess they were familiar with!
At this time, not only Joshua, but almost everyone's eyes showed a trace of astonishment.
If you want to talk about change, in nearly a year, everyone will change.
Joshua has become much more mature and his personality has been corrected.
But compared with the obvious change of Dak Dimon, it is far from it.
This makes people wonder whether Dak Dimon has really changed or learned to pretend?
Choose one of the two...
